<p>how does the nightly release process work? does it just take the latest succesful <code>auto</code> build at a particular time?</p>

<p>every PR that gets merged undergoes the full release process, and all release artifacts are created as part of the CI before the PR even lands on master</p>

<p>actual releases -- nightly, beta, stable -- are then mostly about promoting, copying these auto-generated artifacts to proper releases</p>
